WINSTON COMPANY PHILADELPHIA J. B. LIPPINCOTT COMPANY, Philadelphia GRACE LIVINGSTON HILL in "Re-Creations" tells just the kind of love story everyone likes at heart. Some ten years ago Mrs. Hill won her public with "Marcia Schuyler," a romance of such freshness and gayety that even the most blasé critics capitulated. Since then she has written one successful novel after another until her very name is synonymous with the charm and vivacity of her books. "Re-Creations" gives romance in double measure. Pretty Cornelia Copely, fresh from college, finds life demanding not Art, but her strong young powers of re-creation. Undaunted she begins a plucky experiment which ends in two delightful love affairs. OUIS BECKE knew the Pacific in the old beachcombing days.

George, it is reported, has read his copy three times and this is not to be wondered at in view of the piquant and racy revelations which make this volume of indiscreet gossip the "literary tid-bit of the season." King CAROLYN new WELLS in "Prillilgirl," the "Fleming Stone" detective story, is at her best in her own inimitable combination of love and mystery story. Here is a crime in theatrical circles-a popular playwright found stabbed with his own pen, There curiously wrought from a mediaeval dagger. are prints of small bloody fingers and the figure of pretty Mrs. Guy Thorndike lying unconscious on the floor. But when the trail leads dangerously close to "Prillilgirl" her husband summons Fleming Stone who proceeds to outwit the murderer by radio.
